What it does
The No War Against Iran Act would prohibit the use of federal funds for military force against Iran unless Congress has declared war or enacted specific statutory authorization for such force after the bill’s enactment, consistent with the War Powers Resolution. It clarifies that existing authorizations for military force, including the 2001 AUMF and the 2002 Iraq AUMF, do not authorize force against Iran. The bill includes exceptions for self-defense actions consistent with the War Powers Resolution and affirms that it does not grant new authority for military force or relieve the executive branch of existing reporting and consultation requirements.
